Dean built
EOS from scratch and is as proud of this accomplishment as from his
circumnavigation. He says the ferro cement finish looked like fiberglass not
the sidewalk! His circumnavigation took almost 3 years. After returning to San
Diego he sold EOS then built a 49' cutter named EOS II. Sailed her from San
Diego west through the Pacific and ended up in the Phillipines after sailing
around Asia. He now builds 50' - 60' CATS.

The intended
non-stop circumnavigation was interrupted after I collided with an iceberg on 9
Jan 2002 at 50 deg. 36 min S x 40 deg 46 min W. Damage to the roller furling
and pulpit was repaired in Cape Town. There was no hull damage. I stopped at
Adelaide to replace a faulty radar. Presently lives in Eagle, CO where he and
his wife Mary have mountains rather than the ocean for their views.
